While you're off, if you like classic literature, I can recommend Henry David Thoreau's "Walden" to get more in touch with yourself, nature, and the world around you.

I'd recommend that you take a look at how other democracies do it. Especially the economically and socially successful countries in Europe. The US can learn a lot. But to one side of the aisle that's "radical socialism."

It's reality.

I hope I've bought my last gasoline car.

Unfortunately, the rest of the bunch aren't much better and in some instances even worse.

I'm gonna go for universal healthcare and affordable college education.

Manila palm (aka Christmas palm) for anyone who might one of those trees at home.

As California goes, so goes the nation. Conservatives don't like this.

If it wasn't for the high cost of living, I'd move to California as well. Still hope I'll make it there some day.

And finally imagine you in a place like that.

You don't even have to imagine. That's the reality of the United States in 2023 and has been for a long time.

And only 3 weeks in.

Over the past 30 years, technology has taken extensive leaps forward. Except for printers and printer drivers. Still stuck in 1990.
